This Sunday, "Good Morning America's" Weekend Window visited Newport, R.I. One of America's oldest cities, founded in 1639, Newport offers a diverse community of fisherman, yachtsman and summer visitors. Among Newport's greatest attractions are the old American mansions, where turn-of-the-century New Yorkers would spend their summers. Architechturally exquisite, these mansions are referred to as America's castles. One notable mansion, "The Breakers," built between 1892 and 1895, once was occupied by the Vanderbilt family, and is now open for public viewing. The old and the new live in harmony in Newport, with many restaurants, stores and attractions to also visit. For more information on Newport, R.I., Click Here.
